But not Hydro maintenance crews. For ;hem a storm is the zero hour. ... and task forces go forth to battle. • Last winter's sleet storm in Eastern Ontario is but one example of their work. Hours of freezing rain followed by a blizzard sheathed the district in ice and snow. Streets and roads were blocked by a fantastic tangle of poles, trees and wire. Hundreds of Hydro poles were down. „Country roads blocked with snow. • Wfthina few hours over 200 Hydro men were on the job. Supplies were rushed to strategic points. Men and trucks went to work. . . line breaks were repaired broken poles replaced, wire restrung. Point by point the battling "storm troopers ' restored the flow of Hydro to war production plants, factories, farms and homes . . pushed relentlessly ahead, day and night, until the job was done. • The work of Hydro maintenance crews is one of unrelent- ing vigilance. Power must go through regardless of con- ditions. Across Ontario, Hydro meruip:e on the alert twenty-four hours a day. .. ready, at air ,.mes, to combat any storm . . ready to meet any emergency ... ready to stay on the job until power is again flowing.. doing their port in helping Ontario's war -geared industries speed the supply of Victory munitions to the battle -fronts of the world.

Andrew Lane of Wesley Willis United Church Clinton, preached to a large congregation. His text was from Romans 7: 15 "For what I would, that do I not, but what I hate that do I." Mr. Lane sketched a little .of the story by R. L. Stevenson, Dr. Jeekyll and Ur. Hyde and showed how the yielding to evil suggestions and im- pulses, stifles the desire for higher aspirations and showed that the heart of man can too long reject the Holy Spirit. • The choir of Grace United •Church, Porters Hill assisted very ably in the music for the evening. The congregation was well pleased with the two services of the day and appreciated heartily the kindness of the visiting ministers and singers. Mr. and Mrs. A.

The deterioration or In times of peace, the amount of wear is brought about by the amount wool damaged by the use of unsuit- of use conditions of operation and care of machines and equipment. The estimated costs of operating farrn machines, tractors, and horses. as shown in the bulletin, are based on the machinery records of the Do- minion Experimental Farms Seevice, and on information obtained from literature listed as references, The cost unit of use of each machine is derived from actual, estimated, and selected willies. Factors computed in the estimated costs are depreciation, interest, hous- ing, repairs, repair and labour ser- vice, and miscellaneous items such as grease and .oll. The method used in calculating costs is shown in tables 1, 11,'and 15. Rates of depreciation, re- pair costs, repair labour costs and other items are listed with each ma- chine, and footnotes to the tables stip- ulate interest rates, labour rates, and other factors used in computing east's. Cost data shown in the tables are bee - ed on average costs of operating ma- chinery and pewer on individual farina Due to variations in such items as soil, size of fields, stone mainten-: ance of machines, care in operation,' cost of fuel and feeil, the met of us- ing machines and power in speeific cases' may be more or lose than the average cost. A copy of the bulletin may be .abtained free by writing' to the Publicity and Ekteusion Division able materials in branding sheep may not have been in sufficient quantity to affect the entire wool clip, but in war time, when every shred of wool is required, the loss has a bearing on Canada's war effort. From the stand- point of the manufacturer of woollen cloth, the use of insoluble substances 'such as paint, tar, linseed oil, and old crankcase oil, by sheep breeders in branding range eves, or in number- ing sheep for sales, or for purposes of identification is, very objectionable, In fact, branding or marking sheep with any substance that cannot be washed out is particularly injurious, because the brand or mark is usually stamped on the most valuable part of the fleece. It is 'difficult and costly to remove portions of the fleece marked by un - washable material, either when grad- ing or sorting, and if overlooked, the insoluble material will not dissolve in the 'scouring bath and goes 'forward into the manufacturing process. The finished material carries the stain of the .branding fluid and cannot be cleaned by solvents 'in general use in any cleaning process. Washable brand ing fluids that do not stain the fleece have been. prepared and are sold com- mericiaily. Only such branding fluids should/ be used, in order to increase the supply of native wool which is in- adequate, without imports, to keep Canada's fighting men in the field.
